<h1 class="heading1">Setting Up a Mailbox</h1>
<p class="bodytext">It is likely that your provider has already set up a mailbox on your account. If you are going to use your mail account as a mail forwarder or mailing list, you are recommended to switch off the mailbox service: a mailbox keeps all incoming messages and messages are not removed automatically after being forwarded. Therefore, if you choose to have the &quot;mailbox + mail forwarder&quot; configuration on your account, be sure to clean up the mailbox from time to time.</p>
<p class="procedureheading">To set up a mailbox:</p>
<ol class="procedurelistnumber"><li class="procedurelistnumber">On your Home page, click <strong class="specialbold">Mailbox</strong> in the <strong class="specialbold">Tools</strong> group.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Select the <strong class="specialbold">Mailbox</strong> check box.</li><li class="procedurelistnumber">Click <strong class="specialbold">OK</strong>.</li></ol><p class="bodytext">Now your mailbox is created.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To receive and send e-mail through your mailbox, set up an e-mail program of your choice on your computer (see Setting Up Your E-mail Program for Retrieving Mail from Your Mailbox), or use a browser based Web mail interface (see <a id="h20245" class="jumptemplate" title="Accessing Your Mail from a Web Browser" href="19719.htm" target="_self">Accessing Your Mail from a Web Browser</a>). Credentials for accessing your mailbox are your e-mail address and password that you use for logging in to your control panel.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To change your password, see the section Changing Your Password.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To set up and configure your spam filter, see the section Protecting Your Mailbox from Spam.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To set up and configure anti-virus protection, see the section Protecting Your Mailbox from Viruses.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To set up an e-mail forwarder that will forward mail to another e-mail address, proceed to the section Setting Up an E-mail Forwarder.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To set up an e-mail forwarder to multiple recipients or to use your mail account as a mailing list, see the section Setting Up a Mailing List.</p>
<p class="bodytext">To set up an automatic response, such as &quot;on vacation&quot; or &quot;out of office&quot; notice, see the section <a id="h20251" class="jumptemplate" title="Setting Up an Automatic Reply" href="19717.htm" target="_self">Setting Up an Automatic Reply</a>.</p>
